Visual Studio中的C ++编译器标志

Question

I'm taking a MOOC course on data structures and algorithm. I would like to use c++, and I need to set my compiler options to the following

g++ -pipe -O2 -std=c++14 -lm

I'm currently using MS Visual Studio 2017 on Windows. Is it even possible? Do I need to do custom build? The following is the paragraph taken from the MOOC mentions about Windows users having to use Cygwin, but I have no clue what that means. Can anybody shed some light on a feasible way to do this?

Your solution will be compiled as follows. We recommend that when testing your solution locally, you use the same compiler flags for compiling. This will increase the chances that your program behaves in the same way on your machine and on the testing machine (note that a buggy program may behave differently when compiled by different compilers, or even by the same compiler with different flags).

C++ (g++ 5.2.1). File extensions: .cc, .cpp. Flags

g++ -pipe -O2 -std=c++14 -lm

If your C/C++ compiler does not recognize the "-std=c++14" flag, try replacing it with "-std=c++11" or "-std=c++0x" flag or compiling without this flag at all (all starter solutions can be compiled without it). On Linux and MacOS, you probably have the required compiler. On Windows, you may use your favorite compiler or install an environment such as cygwin.

As they said you should choose cygwin ( https://cygwin.com/install.html ).
These would be the flags for msvc: /std:c++14 /O2 /Im

You can set compiler options for each project in its Property Pages dialog box. In the left pane, select Configuration Properties, C/C++ and then choose the compiler option category. For the categories lookup: https://docs.microsoft.com/de-de/cpp/build/reference/compiler-options-listed-by-category
